Killer aps for the iPhone?

My wife finally got her beloved iPhone. I admit that I can't stop playing with the thing either. Anyone have any favorite apps? I've downloaded some freebies: facebook, wikipedia, sports updates, flashlight.

What are some must haves that are actually worth paying for?

A good list. I substitute Simplenote and Things in for Awesomenote and OmniFocus respectively. Simplenote I bought before seeing Awesomenote otherwise I might have chosen differently. Though simplenote is stellar because it is, obviously, simple.

I like Scorecenter I just wish they'd change the interface. The pop up per game UI is reeruned.

Games
Labyrinth 3D (Wooden marble game)
Trace (Very addictive simple game)
FlightControl (Air Traffic Control game)
Geared (Problem solving game using gears)
King Pin (Bowling Wii style)
Tiger Woods (expensive, but fun)
I don't really game much. I should though. Maybe I would if I like rode a subway to work or something.

Does PDA net work on phones that aren't jailbroken? I didn't think tethering worked on the iPhone/ATT?

Oops. Sorry. It won't work on an iPhone or iPod that's not jailbroken.

You can install a different carrier package on a normal iPhone that isn't jailbroken though. It will let you tether. AT&T actually was going to offer this legit, but never did. Just follow these instructions:

Microsoft is currently working on an iPhone App for Windows Live Messenger, as well as for Bing. According to the news portal Neowin, Microsoft acknowledges the current market share for the Apple phone and wants to spread Messenger over to its users.


The release of the Windows Live Messenger iPhone App is currently scheduled to take place alongside with Windows Live Wave 4—that is, spring 2010.

IF you're using a 3G phone, there's an app called iVideoCamera. Allows you to finally take videos with your 3G phone.

FYI for my jailbroken friends....

The Installous iPhone app is back up and running again. No more Troll Bridge. It's now using Apptrackr instead of Appulous for .ipa sources. Makes it much faster.

Here's all the info: http://hackulo.us/forums/

You can also go directly to http://apptrackr.org/ and use that website for downloading .ipa files from your computer.

For anyone wondering, Tweetie 2 is awesome. I picked it up for the Indie+Relief fundraiser and love it. When they say it's completely rewritten from the original Tweetie, they mean it. And for the better.

Trapped father survives with help of phone app

By Josh Levs, CNN


STORY HIGHLIGHTS
  • Dan Woolley, a Colorado aid worker, was trapped in Haiti hotel after earthquake
  • Woolley used cell phone application to learn how to control bleeding, survive
  • iPhone application, called "Pocket First Aid & CPR," is from Jive Media
  • "That gave me confidence to treat my wounds properly," Woolley says
(CNN) -- Alone in the darkness beneath layers of rubble, Dan Woolley felt blood streaming from his head and leg.
Then he remembered -- he had an app for that.
Woolley, an aid worker, husband, and father of two boys, followed instructions on his cell phone to survive the January 12 earthquake in Haiti.
"I had an app that had pre-downloaded all this information about treating wounds. So I looked up excessive bleeding and I looked up compound fracture," Woolley told CNN.
The application on his iPhone is filled with information about first aid and CPR from the American Heart Association. "So I knew I wasn't making mistakes," Woolley said. "That gave me confidence to treat my wounds properly."
Trapped in the ruins of the Hotel Montana in Port-au-Prince, he used his shirt to bandage his leg, and tied his belt around the wound. To stop the bleeding on his head, he firmly pressed a sock to it.
Concerned he might have been experiencing shock, Woolley used the app to look up what to do. It warned him not to sleep. So he set his phone alarm to go off every 20 minutes.
Once the battery got down to less than 20 percent of its power, Woolley turned it off. By then, he says, he had trained his body not to sleep for long periods, drifting off only to wake up within minutes.
Woolley's job keeps him tech savvy. He oversees interactive projects for the Christian child advocacy organization Compassion International in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

CNN iReport: Looking for loved ones in Haiti
With his injuries tended to, he wrote a note to his family in his journal: "I was in a big accident, an earthquake. Don't be upset at God. He always provides for his children even in hard times. I'm still praying that God will get me out, but he may not. But even so he will always take care of you."
The journal is stained with his blood.
After more than 60 hours, Woolley was pulled from the rubble.
"Those guys are rescue heroes," he said of the crew that pulled him out.

Interactive map of where to find aid, hospitals in Haiti
His colleague David Hames has not been found. The two had been standing together when the earthquake struck and the Hotel Montana crumbled. They were making a film about poverty in Haiti and had just gotten back to the hotel, heading to the elevator in the lobby.
"Then all of a sudden just all craziness broke loose," Woolley said. "Convulsions of the ground around us, the walls started rippling and then falling on us. [Hames] yelled out, 'I think it's an earthquake!' I looked for someplace safe to jump to and there was no safe place."
When the shaking stopped, Woolley couldn't see. And his friend was not with him.
He turned on the focus light of a camera he was wearing around his neck, but he didn't have his glasses. "So I actually took some pictures and would look at the back of the lens of the camera and saw in one of those pictures the elevator that I ended up hobbling over to. And that became my safe place."
Once in the elevator, he used the app -- called "Pocket First Aid & CPR" from Jive Media -- to tend to his injuries. Woolley said his phone "was like a high-tech version of a Swiss Army knife that enabled me to treat my own injuries, track time, stay awake and stay alive."
Woolley heard voices of some other people trapped nearby, and they spoke with each other.
"About a day, maybe day and a half in, we heard rescuers, and they had a list of our names at that point, because they were able to talk to one of the people we were talking with. And so then it seemed like, OK, this is going to happen, we're actually going to get rescued.
"But then it just took a long time and there were times where I didn't hear anything or I'd hear drilling in a far part of the building and just didn't get any reassurance they were still coming for me," Woolley said.
"The scene outside was a lot more chaotic and less simple than I imagined in my head. ... But eventually they came for me and did an amazing rescue."
Back home now in Colorado Springs with his wife Christina and children Josh, 6, and Nathan, 3, Woolley said he's grateful to God for getting him through the ordeal.
"Happiness is a morning with ... family, filled with Legos, kissing boo-boos and normalcy."

That first aid app probably just went from free to 10 bucks.
